And the Jets’ defensive line wants it. The team ranks No. 1 in the NFL in stopping the run, yielding only 73.2 rushing yards per game — eight yards fewer than the next best team. And the Jets (5-5) allow a league-low 2.9 yards per carry.

They will be tested Sunday by the Baltimore Ravens’ 27th-ranked rushing offense (83.2, just 3.0 yards per carry) in a game both teams are desperate to win.

But Rutgers alum Ray Rice produced his best game of the season last week, torching Chicago for 131 yards on 25 carries when the Ravens returned to a two-back formation.

“The thing I’ll tell you about Ray, he has everybody’s attention,” Rex Ryan said. “The way they’re playing defense, he has everybody’s attention.”Rice will face the “Sons of Anarchy,” the fan-christened nickname for the Jets’ defensive front three — Richardson, Muhammad Wilkerson and Damon Harrison, whose surnames all end in “son.”

Harrison is the NFL’s No. 1 rated nose tackle against the run, according to the analytical website ProFootballFocus.com.

“If a team can run on you, they can do anything on you,” said linebacker Quinton Coples, who this season converted from defensive end.

“Once they start a run game on you, they pretty much go with that because you can’t stop it.

“[Stopping] run games open up opportunities for us to get to rush the pass.”

The starting defensive linemen each are 24 or younger, a remarkably youthful collection of talent. Wilkerson has blossomed into one of the NFL’s best players. Richardson consistently has been one of the league’s best rookies.

“And all Harrison has done is clog the middle and disrupt opposing offensive lines.“We took that in early in the year,” Richardson said. “We know we have mean potential here.”

And they’re developing together.

“We’re able to relate in so many ways because we’re all young, and we’re still going through the [same] things,” Coples said.

KERLEY DOUBTFUL: Jeremy Kerley is listed as doubtful for Sunday after again practicing in a red, no-contact jersey.

The receiver suffered a dislocation of his left elbow three weeks ago against New Orleans. He has yet to fully stretch out his arm.

“It hasn’t been something I’ve been trying to do, so I wouldn’t know what to tell you right now,” said Kerley, speaking for the first time since the injury.

But even if he misses his second straight game, the Jets’ leader in receptions (28) and receiving yards (347) is “further along” than was anticipated, according to Ryan.

“It was ugly. I don’t know how else to describe it, but like a horrific-looking injury,” Ryan said.

“I thought the worst,” Kerley said of his initial fear. “I thought it was broken or something.”

Kerley has caught most of his passes in practice this week with only his right hand.

He was injured Nov. 3 when New Orleans LB David Hawthorne — a former TCU teammate and “good friend” — crashed into him.

BRIEFS: Mike Goodson posted a photo of Mark Sanchez with his hair styled in cornrows that went viral on Twitter. It also was noteworthy because it came on the one-year anniversary of Sanchez’s infamous “butt fumble” against the Patriots. The quarterback later posted a photo on Instagram saying the new look was the result of a lost bet. ... Santonio Holmes (hamstring/foot), David Nelson (illness) and Kellen Winslow (knee) are probable.
